Chapter 236: The Dual Kings Fall, The Bet of Earth’s Veins!
“This…”
The Five Heavenly Kings widened their eyes, even thinking they were dreaming.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t figure out what he had done to endure such an onslaught from this lineup!
Among them, Han Ye, Mu Ran Ya, and Fire Heart were all genuine Sages.
The Senior Apprentice Sister, holding the Strong Strike Marketplace, could also deliver Sage-level attacks.
As for Yao Xian, it goes without saying—having spent countless years, the Mountain Ghost Clan had gained profound insight into the Laws after receiving their title. If it came to a showdown, they were even more troublesome than average Sages!
In addition, with an unhappy Zhou Tong standing by, the situation was surely one of death.
Although the Five Heavenly Kings had confidence in themselves, they weren’t arrogant enough to believe they could walk away unscathed.
Moreover, having a nearly useless burden next to him made it nearly impossible for him to escape by force.
“Let us go, or we’ll fight to the death and take tens of thousands of humans down with us!”
With no other options, the Five Heavenly Kings could only threaten.
“You think you’re tough?”
Chief Enforcer Han Ye, adhering to the old Sage’s usual style, struck without warning, launching a shocking blow that caught the opponent off guard!
A magnificent brilliance pierced the sky, almost exploding the Five Heavenly Kings!
“Ahhh… you old fool, how dare you sneak attack? Do you really think I wouldn’t self-destruct?”
“Go ahead and blow up, quickly! If you don’t self-destruct, you’re my grandson, bah! You’re just a dog I raised, bah! You’re worse than a dog, only fit to be a chamber pot!”
“Ah! This is too much!”
Infuriated, the opponent not only refused to self-destruct but even dared to initiate an attack, prompting the others to join the fray!
“Nine-Color Glazed Light!”
“Heavenly Fire, attack!”
“Breath of Annihilation, Power of Unity!”
All were powerful moves aimed at breaking defenses and causing destruction, directly targeting the Demonic Race, leaving the Five Heavenly Kings utterly unprepared!
“Seal the Heavens!”
“Heaven-defying Eye! Strong Luck Flicker!”
Yao Xian and Zhou Tong wouldn’t back down either; the former blocked the escape route, while the latter sealed the source of the opponent’s Laws, preventing them from fleeing or even having the chance for a mutual demise!
This was a battle without suspense, and it didn’t last long, ending in less than a quarter of an hour.
In this battle, the Devil King’s recovery abilities played no role, swiftly eradicated instead.
The dual kings fell!
Another Sage was slain!
Everyone below was dumbfounded, and Huang Wu was so frightened that he vomited green bile and died unexpectedly!
A reincarnation realm individual dying from sheer fright could be considered a spectacle.
“Poof!”
Zhou Tong exhaled lightly, and a Breath of Annihilation hit the opponent’s corpse, causing it to ignite.
Dealing with such beings required destroying their soul, annihilating their remnants, leaving them with no chance of reincarnation!
“Boom!!”
Suddenly, the sky erupted with thunder, and the ground blossomed like a lotus!
As a chicken dies and crows, this upheld the Heavenly Dao’s principles. With the fall of the Sage, the Slayer of Sages ought to receive blessings!
Aside from the announcement of the Heavenly Dao, all six who had acted received the Saint’s Essence, with Zhou Tong once again becoming the strongest Slayer of Sages, as he had nearly single-handedly beaten a Heavenly King!
“Master, this thing is useless to me; you should absorb it.”
Zhou Tong caught the sphere of Saint’s Essence and handed it directly to Mu Ran Ya.
To forge the Divine Me and the Love Me, Mu Ran Ya had consumed a large amount of Sage’s source; this was just what she needed to replenish.
“Then I will accept it.”
She flushed and replied, but did not absorb it immediately, instead choosing to store it away.
“What’s wrong? Why not refine it immediately?”
Zhou Tong couldn’t help but frown; this was not a wise move.
“Um… just a little bit longer; I’ll refine it in a bit!”
She stammered, clearly calculating something in her mind.
However, this was not the time to dwell on that; what was important was how to handle Dragon Transformation Mountain.
“Chief Enforcer, the appearance of two Heavenly Kings here must have some mystery behind it.”
Zhou Tong extended his Spiritual Power downward and sensed an incredibly strong fluctuation.
“That makes sense. What do you think we should do?”
The Chief Enforcer looked at Zhou Tong kindly, surprisingly giving him the decision-making power.
“Very simple, just flatten this mountain range. No matter what secrets are hidden here, they must have no place to escape!”
“Alright, it shall be as you say!”
That day, the practitioners of the Eastern Continent witnessed a truly spectacular scene.
The Sages united to part the mountains, mercilessly flattening an entire range.
Not only that, but the Sages also dug a hundred zhang deep, directly altering the terrain.
“Boom!!”
A powerful wave erupted from the deep pit, making even the Sage-level experts quiver.
“This is… such a rich Dao law! What is hidden underground?”
Fire Heart’s spirit trembled; as the Fire Authority, she felt incredibly small before this Law.
“Everyone step back!”
The Chief Enforcer ordered, and just as his words fell, a massive lotus flower rose from the ground, filled with profound and sacred energy.
“This is the Earth’s Veins of the Eastern Continent!”
Yao Xian alerted everyone.
“The Earth’s Veins!”
Though they had never heard of it, just the name made it clear this was no ordinary thing.
“So this is the Earth’s Veins. It’s my first time seeing it; I didn’t expect it to be here.”
Zhou Tong said gravely: “It is said to be one of the embodiments of the Earth’s Laws, and the lifeblood of this continent, governing the birth and death of all living beings, as well as the ownership of this land!”
“The ownership of the land?”
The Chief Enforcer immediately grasped the key point.
“Exactly. From the current situation, the ownership should belong to the Human Race. The Demonic Race’s Heavenly King establishing a base here clearly wants to act on this front.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Earth’s Veins slowly blossomed, and a pact rose from the flower’s core.
“What’s this?!”
Zhou Tong reached out and grasped it in his hand.
“Heavenly Dao Betting Pact!”
With the pact unfolding, its contents appeared before everyone.
“With the Heavenly Dao as witness, the parties in the wager are the Earth’s Veins and the Demonic Race’s Heavenly King.”
Betting time limit: Three hundred years!
Betting content: Confidential.
Betting stakes: If the Demonic Race can fulfill the wager, the ownership of the Eastern Continent will be granted to the Demonic Race. If they fail, the Demonic Race will sacrifice ten Sages to nourish the Earth’s Veins!
Seeing this, everyone felt their scalp tingling. Was the Heavenly Dao pact really usable like this?
Currently, the pact was still in progress. If the Demonic Race completed it, the Eastern Continent would become the Demonic Race’s territory.
“We must clarify the content of the pact. We are racing against time.”
The Chief Enforcer was shrouded in a cold aura, and everyone was on edge.
This situation was like a steel knife hanging over their heads, with no way of knowing when or if it would fall, truly capable of driving a person mad.
“Perhaps it doesn’t need to be like this. I have a simpler way!”
At that moment, Zhou Tong stepped forward.
